Way to go Washington. The government shutdown has not only closed my favorite park and made it harder to get my free lunch program, it also may mean that this emotionally unbalanced security guard may lose his job at the Smithsonian.
Ted Deavers has been working for the federal government for 15 years, 14 and a half on probation with around the clock surveillance, and even though he's quick to flip you the bird or curse under his breath at your requests for maps or information, he knows that he couldn't do any of that without the federal government.
That's why it's so important that a solution to this problem presents itself to our leaders in DC before we lose our future leaders like Ted here. You may not know it, but your ruined day might make the day for somebody else. Somebody like our finger-flipping government employee in the accompanying photo. Ted might not be very good at his job, but at least he's doing it and that's something you won't be able to say if Congress and The President don't go out for drinks and smokes and half hearted compromises. The kind of things that make this country, and people like Ted, great or even good or if we were really honest, tolerable.
